[QUOTE="donnellysdogs, post: 825419, member: 17713"] The cheese omlette would probably have counted as about 4g for each egg so difficult to establish whether your raise this morning was due to your basal rates or correction etc or which. It is easy to test your morning rates. Just don't have anything to eat until 5 hours after you have got up. I personally drink gallons of coffee so I continue to do this whilst basal testing. Were you told that if your levels change between 2-3 hours after a bolus then it will probably be the bolus amount that needs amending? You are not persistently climbing very high very quickly so personally it isn't a mechanical failure it is your insulin rates that are incorrect. I would personally if it was me give a correction but as you are over 14.0 then add a little bit extra on. Eg. If my correction said 0.9 I would have upped it to 1.35 and check hourly. [/QUOTE]
